Default Problems with dump tube for max rev set up on 94--00 check this out..

I had a problem with dumptube fittment on the max-rev b series kit on a gs-r 94-00 kits. with TIAL wastegate of course.
There is no room between the fans and the turbo. So it has to go sideways and then strait down pain in the ***. Does any one need on of those be cause I had problems finding any info on the subject. Here is pic.

I've got a MaxRev Mani, but I had to take out my drivers side fan to fit the turbo (I still haven't replaced it, but the cooling system has been problem free for four months, so I'm not too worried). I welded up my own DumpTube, which follows the angle of the Wastegate, go straigth down right after the wastegate, and exits beneath the A/C compressor.

Here's a pic to give you an idea of how I routed it



Hope that helps

John I have a dumptube but mine will keep all fans intact and all factory suff as it was. I was wondering if anybody needed to have one made? Thanks for the reply.

I intially had the same problem with my hybrid setup. My car has even less room than yours. The best thing to do is get a 1.5 90degree bend and weld it to some wastegate flanges.

It does have to be all that long. Next goto discount auto or some place like that and get the exhaust flex tube, again 1.5" The pic below shows what I am talking about. Sorry if its hard to see, its the only pic I have of my dump tube that is even half visible. Notice how its clamped on to the non-flex portion of the dump tube.

The flex gives you much more flexibiity to run the pipe. I have the a/c with all the fans still intact.

Opps! I just re-read your post and realized that I got what you were saying entirely wrong

Second time I've done that today...
